traveling to away games - calling all faithful

[Section A]

jy3,

yeah I got the colgate tickets from the cornell box office yesterday (Thurs.) afternoon at around 3:30, so perhaps they do indeed still have some. I also got RPI/Union tickets, so as of yesterday, they still had those as well.

I then walked over to Lynah and noticed that the team was finishing up practice; O'Byrne of all people won their end-of-practice breakaway competition! :-)

[jy3]

that is strange b/c she told me they had none! cya there.

I'd like to go to Dartmouth/UVM -- I figure it's a nice way to spend my birthday, and it'll be one of my last chances to see some games before rehearsals start on the 23rd.  Is anyone interested in arranging some sort of econo-room?

my room is full, sorry. u should be able to get rooms for both nights for 30 each

[Ack]

Is anyone driving from Ithaca or nearby to the Dartmouth/Vermont away games (or even to that region in the East where civilization lies) this weekend?  Offering the usual: good company from a fellow faithful and paid gas and things.

My birthday is this weekend too! Although during my freshman year on my birthday, Cornell lost 11-0 to Yale, so it's not a very promising date. The following year however, they beat Princeton 8-4 at home, and I believe that was a good year for Princeton.  So it remains to be seen what luck they will have in Hanover.

Power to the Aquarians  We should celebrate.  Come to the games!!

[jy3]

sorry mike i will be leaving from albany

[jy3]

who is going to uvm/dc?

[dss28]

I'll be there

[Ack]

I am

[Will]

Myself + 1 will be there for Dartmouth/UVM.  Since I'm also planning on doing RPI/Union already, it means the only games I will have missed this season will be the Yale/Princeton games and Everblades.  The latter was never a possibility, but I could have stayed at home in New Jersey.  Grr, stupid friends not wanting to go to the away games until it was too late...:-D

[faithful \'05]

I am going with 2 friends

Careful on the roads tomorrow.  The weather is going to be really nasty and we don't want any repeats of the Colgate travel experience (in so many ways.)

From the NWS...
Ithaca:
A WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR LATE TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY.  GENERAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL RANGE FROM 1 TO 3 INCHES ACROSS NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA TO 3 TO 5 INCHES ACROSS UPSTATE NEW YORK BEFORE THE SNOW CHANGES TO SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN ON FRIDAY MORNING.  THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF SIGNIFICANT ICING ACROSS THE REGION ON FRIDAY.
 
Hanover:
SNOW WILL OVERSPREAD NEW HAMPSHIRE BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND MOVE INTO WESTERN MAINE BY LATE IN THE DAY.  FRIDAY NIGHT SNOW WILL CONTINUE IN THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS OF MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE WHILE SOUTHERN INTERIOR MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE SEES A CHANGEOVER TO MIXED PRECIPITATION.  ALONG THE COAST SNOW WILL CHANGEOVER TO RAIN AND POSSIBLY SOME FREEZING RAIN FRIDAY NIGHT. THE COMBINATION OF ACCUMULATING SNOW FOLLOWED BY SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN FRIDAY NIGHT WILL MAKE ROADS HAZARDOUS.
 
Burlington:
SNOW IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS VERMONT AND NORTHERN NEW YORK ON FRIDAY...WITH 2 TO 4 INCHES OF SNOWFALL EXPECTED BY EARLY FRIDAY EVENING.  THE SNOW IS EXPECTED TO MIX WITH OR CHANGE TO SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN FRIDAY NIGHT...AS WARM AIR ALOFT MOVES INTO THE REGION...WHILE TEMPERATURES AT THE SURFACE REMAIN BELOW FREEZING FRIDAY NIGHT.  THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHAT TYPE OF PRECIPITATION WILL OCCUR FRIDAY NIGHT...AS THIS IS DEPENDENT ON THE TRACK OF THE LOW PRESSURE AREA MOVING UP THE EAST COAST...BUT THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF SNOW OR ICE.

Good advice from Christine.  The storm is huge, causing snow in Ontario and severe thunderstorms in the Gulf of Mexico.  It's also the same system that dropped a few tornadoes in Hawaii a couple of weekends ago.  ::twitch::
